Recently a gentleman in South Africa e-mailed me about his ancestor who died in the SS Hilda tragedy, and is buried in St Mary Extra Cemetery in Southampton. We were able to extend his family history considerably as a result.

Another correspondent from California wrote to me about his ancestors buried in Southampton Old Cemetery, and here again we were able to find much more about his family

Are any of your ancestors buried in this City? Why not contact me, and perhaps we can exchange stories and discover new facts about your family?

This group of local volunteers does splendid work in keeping the Old Cemetery tidy, and also researching the stories of the Cemetery and the people buried in it.
